LEMON CHEESECAKE WITH GINGERSNAP CRUST
This is from the May 1989 issue of Bon Appetit, in an article called "Lemon Twists" by Abby Mandel; it is also the cover photo. My note to self written on the recipe says, "Labor intensive but very nice!", even while using a food processor! The minimum 4 hours refrigeration time is included in the cooking time.
